Why porcelain outperforms every other tile
Porcelain tile is fired at higher temperatures from a denser clay than standard ceramic. The result is a tile that's less than 0.5% porous (effectively waterproof), harder than granite, and rated for commercial-grade traffic. Prestigious Flooring & Design installs porcelain tile in homes and businesses across the Greater Alpharetta Area - and it's the tile our own certified setters recommend most for kitchens and baths.
Modern porcelain comes in wood-look planks, marble-look slabs, concrete-look squares, and textured outdoor-rated options. You can get the look of natural stone without any of the sealing maintenance.
Where porcelain is the right call
Porcelain is the safest specification for any high-use, wet, or high-value space. It handles freeze-thaw cycles, won't fade in sunlight, and shrugs off everything a family or pet can throw at it.
- Wood-look porcelain planks - all the look of hardwood, none of the water damage risk
- Large-format slabs (24x48, 32x32) - fewer grout lines, modern open feel
- Marble and stone-look porcelain - the look of natural stone without the sealing schedule
- Outdoor patios and pool decks - freeze-thaw rated, slip-resistant finishes available
- Commercial spaces - meets PEI Class 4-5 abrasion ratings for retail and restaurants

Learn moreInstallation done right
Porcelain demands precision. Large-format and plank-shaped tiles are unforgiving of subfloor unevenness - even 1/8" of dip will telegraph through. Our certified installers laser-level every floor, use leveling clips on every install, and back-butter every plank for 95%+ mortar coverage.
We also use the right cutting tools. Porcelain dulls a standard wet saw blade in minutes - we run rim-segmented diamond blades and an angle grinder with a porcelain-rated wheel for clean cuts at every outlet, vent, and corner.

Porcelain Tile - frequently asked questions
Yes - porcelain is denser, less porous, and harder. For floors, wet areas, and any high-traffic space, porcelain is worth the small price upgrade over ceramic.
Modern wood-look porcelain is remarkably realistic - especially in 8"+ plank widths with textured surfaces. Most guests can't tell unless they get on their hands and knees. Compare it to real hardwood at our Alpharetta showroom.
Porcelain itself is extremely hard, but it can crack if the subfloor flexes underneath. That's why we use uncoupling membranes on plywood subfloors and large-format installs.
It depends on the finish. We recommend matte or textured finishes (DCOF 0.42 or higher) for bathrooms, entries, and outdoor use. Polished porcelain is best for dry rooms only. Our tile flooring team can help you choose the right finish per room.
